Pyongyang, September 4 (KCNA) -- Socialist patriotism constitutes an ideological and moral quality of the Korean people who are living and making revolution in the socialist homeland of Juche, says Rodong Sinmun Saturday in a signed article.

The article says that the Korean people's revolutionary traits based on the spirit of socialist patriotism find a vivid manifestation in smashing the anti-DPRK moves of the imperialists and firmly defending the socialist country and they are strikingly demonstrated in giving full play to the Juche character and national character and thoroughly preserving the true nature of socialism.

They find a striking manifestation in sincerely working for the prosperity of the country, the article notes, and goes on:

All the Korean people are now waging a high-pitched drive for a great revolutionary surge by the Korean way the revolution is made and everything created under the uplifted revolutionary slogan "Let Us Live Our Own Way!" This stirring reality is a clear indication of the Korean people's transparent spirit of socialist patriotism.

It is the Korean people who like to sing songs to their own tune, dance to their own rhythm, choose their own style and live in their own senses.

The pure conscience with which Koreans work hard at their posts is prompted by their socialist patriotism and their world-startling miracles and exploits are based on their noble patriotic devotion.

Though they differ from each other in duties and posts, Koreans feel the greatest worth of living and pride in their love and dedication to the country. It is thanks to this noble patriotism that the country is making dynamic progress and a rosy future of a thriving socialist nation is on the horizon.
